which are now in the hands of William
Miner, an aged cousin of David G Philips
of Loubvitle are perfect gems of occult
literature. They are written in a strange,
crabbed hand on long note paper in old
fashioned aurtgali ink. and all bear dales
ranging from 13i to i829. He correctly
outline the Mexican war of 146-47, giving
time, cat as and duration of the struggie;
vara people lopepare for the gre civil
conflict of 1861-63, besides tailing, as do
the histories of today, the cans and results
of the Franco-Prussia -1 war of 1870-71.
He devoted five closely written pages to the
decade following 1830. ptuactoating it in
several plane with the remark: "These
iO years will see the greatest destiutliuti of
life and property known in the world'
history." As no real prophet was ever
known to juit tie business without figur
ing out the final end of the world, liaJdsn
tried hi hand and s.ts the date of that
interesting event for i913, and ths third
day of Augustas the exact time.

The figures given upon this page
a
plurality of the pc polar vote far
QUssx
Cleveland of over 600.000.
This total is quite certain lobe increased
by the fall returns. A tidal wave always
grows ss it advances. The democratic
candidates will have a large majority of all
the votes cast the first time that this has
happened since 1876.
Mr Cleveland's plurality of tbe popular
vote in 1884 was 62,683. In 1388 it waa
98,017. Tbe increase this year was re
markable. Tbe democratic plurality on congressmen
in 1890 waa over 800 000. Upon state
officers last year it was over 600,000. In
both these yean there was a light vote.
This year, upon a full vote, it reaches the
imposing total of over 600,000.
Is it not tims that the will of the people
should be tbe taw of the land?
The next president is a democrat.
A "Constant Reader" of th Democrat

the difference In the sffecton party standing
woduced by Governor Pennover aad tbe
state central committee, kit him make a rea-
sonsble analysis ol the motives by which tbe
Governor sad the committee were actuated
The state central committee recommended
that democrats vote tor the Weaver electors
as a means of defeating Harrison and se
curing the election of Cleveland. Ths
governor supported the Weaver electors as
a means of defeating the election of Cleve
land. The committee thought that the
vote of Oregon gr be enough to elect
Harrison. Hence they advised this course
so that theTWeaver electors might be elect
ed and thus throw the election into the
house where Cleveland's election was sure.
In brief, ths governor very earnestly de
sired the dtfeat of Cleveland and the
committee with equal teal desired his
election. The committee did what it
thought was best to promote the election
of Cleveland and there is no profit in dls-
cussimr the Question whether they erred in
judgment .
The Sensters sud Representatives of both
parties agrae that uurestri:ted immigration
is an svil replete with mischief to the In
stitutions of the Republic; and It Is quite tims
that some more decided action should bs ta
ken in the matter. After a Prestdentisl
election, there have bean those who bave had
courage enough to say: "Now Is the time to
do something. Let us have ao politlss in the
mttter," but others have replied: "Wall.
Ws agree with you perfectly, It ought to be
dons, hut wsit until after th Congressional
election; we will antagsnixe the foreign vote,
If ths bill Is introduced now." In other
words, the good of the psopls hsa been sac
rificed in ths struggls of the Legislates to
retsin office. It it entirely within the province
of Congress to pass such legislation as will
reduce immigration to limits compatible with
public wslfsre; aad this should be don st
once. There wss a blessing la the warning
of cholera; but already th people are fall
ng into the old tndlff.trence, as reports from
New York clearly sho r.

At the annual dinner of the chamber of
commerce of New York City given Tuesday
evening President elect Cleveland spoke as
follows:
"I am exceedingly gratified by tbe kind
ness and warmth of your greeting. It does
not surprise me, however, for I have seen
and felt on more than one occasion the
cordial bovpitaJity and heartiness of those
who assemble at the annual dinners of our
chamber of commerce. We all have no
ticed tint many, when they seek to appear
especially wise and impressive, speak of
'our business interest ' as something awful
and mysterious, and quite often, when
preposition is under discussion, its merits
are no longer apparent to those whose hair
is on end at the solemn suggestion that
'our business interests' are lying in wait
with numerous vial of wrath in complete
readiness for those who arrive at an unac
cepted conclusion. I am fortunate in being
able to state that my relation to the
I cnasn uer of commerce of hew York, though
I miyor a compTimeflWT EttKl, arising
from an honorary membership, hare so
familiarized me with 'our business inter
ests' that I no longer rezard these words as
meaning a bloodthirsty beast ror do I
have constantly pictured before my mind
those children in the biblical story who
were torn in pieces by bear for discussing
too much at random the baldness of an
ancient prophet. It is entirety natural that
my familiarity with 'business interest.,'
arising from my relation to w'uich I have
referred, should be of a pleasant sort and
free from fear and trepidation ; for the only
meetings I have ever attended of the
chamber of commerce have been precisely
such as this, when the vsry best things to
eat and drink hive been exhaustively dis
cussed. I am bound to say that on these
occasions the dreadful beings rniinimting
bt sines interests' have been very human
'I know you will not do me the very
great injustice of supposing thai I, in the
least, underrate the importance of the com
mercial and financial interests here repre
sen ted; on the contrary, no one appreciates
more fully than I, that while a proper
adjustment of all interests should be main
tained, you represent those which are utterly
1 ndispensible to our national growth aad
prosperity. I do not deliere that any other
interests should be obliged to feed from the
crumbs which fall from the table of bu.i-
aor do I believe that the table should
be robbed of the good things which are
honestly and fairly there, because some of
the tables are not well provided. It comes
to this: We are all interested, as Ameri
cana, m a common pursuit, w purpose

to draw, perhaps not equally but justly.

each other in our anxiety to be first in that
distribution of share, and let us not at
tempt to appropriate the harea of others.

my thanks for the courtesies often srtrstfird

There have been a few democrats through
out the tsad who bare deplored the coarse
partued by democratic papers daring the
est sour yean In making tbe tariff iwu
so prominent in I heir column, snd the
Democbat has been criticised somewhat
among local democrats for devoting so much
time sad space to that its sc. To one wbo
has watched ths trend of public thought aad
public talk for the last four years, and bad
become Infected with tne t pi lit of campaign
of education that was to sweep over the land
with mighty force, there was nothing to fear
The democrat who had well de6oed con
victions upon the question of tariff reform to
revenue basis could only be glad that tbe
great tar'Jl lasue was to be fought oat on this
line of reason, education and intelligence.
It is no wonder that some of those democrats
who cried down the conrteof the Democeat
should now ruth into the ltrht ret) toted by
be greatest political victory ever won In thit
country, aad exclaim la congressional lan
guage: "Where am I at?"
Tbe truth Is these democtats have been,
daring the last five years, far ia the rear of
the procession though they have been totally
oblivious ol the fact. The great victory
achieved in the election ef Grover Cleveland
is but the culmination of one of the longest
the fiercest, aad tht most hotly contested
campaigns of education that the country has
ever known. On .he part ef the democrats
it has been one continual appeal to reason.
one continual elTott to induce the mass of vo
ters of ths country to think snd reason on
the great iatue. Upon the success of this ap
peal depended the success of the democratic
party. That there should be democrats, no
attached, standing by the wsyskt criticising
the great democratic army waging battle
against the fearful cohorts of monopoly pro
tection and plutocracy was no matter of sur
prise. It has always been thus, but trie dem
ocratic hosts, conscious of tbe tighteoutnes of
their cause, and certain of ultimate victory
took no lime to reason with men destitute oi
resson, hut matcne l on steadily to sur vic
tory. Now let all rejoice In the people'e
triumph.

It Is time for the Republican Senate to
get out of the way.
The people rejscled the policy of Mcstin
levism in 1S90 by electing sn overwhelming
majority of Democrats to th House of Rep
resentatives. 1 he Republican Senate re
fused to heed the decision or to accept tt at
6nal. It insolently pigeon-holed every
House measure of reform and asked the peo
ple to consider their decision.
The people have reconsidered the matter
and have reaffirmed their demand for tariff
reform with the sdded emphasis of levolu
tionary changes in States hitherto securely
Republican.
Will the Senate accept this second verdict
and obey the reiterated command? Or will
the Republican majority there sit in Bour
bonish obstruction till their power to ob
struct shsll slip away, as It mutt a few
months hence?
If popular government mean anything it
it the plain duty of ths Republican Senate
to get out of the way and permit ths work
ing of a reform pasttd at th coming session
of Congress. It Is far the lingering Repub
lican majority la the Senate to ssy whether
this shall be, or whether thay will kssp them
stives snd their party In an attitude of blind
and stupid obstruction.
